Masturbating to Showgirls when I was younger warped my psyche, because from that point on, I expected the female orgasm to look like Elizabeth Berkley flopping around (NSFW) like an injured sea lion under a waterfall.  But as it turns out, the female orgasm is a myth.

According to German publication/site Extratipp, writer/director Marc Vorlander has been developing a [Showgirls sequel] called SHOWGIRLS: STORY OF HOPE, one centered on the original’s minor character, Hope — played then and now by model/actress Rena Riffel.

The project, says the trade, is so “good” it attracted two Hollywood producers and a $25M budget for production in Frankfurt.  “It’s about stripper who died from a dose of contaminated cocaine. Her brother comes to Frankfurt to find the responsible and revenge.” [JoBlo]

Today it’s being reported that Elizabeth Berkley will bring her unique acting talents to S. Darko, the sequel to Donnie Darko in which the only returning cast member is Donnie Darko’s younger sister Samantha, who I can’t even remember. I will bet my entire paycheck this goes straight to DVD.

Berkley plays a speed freak-turned-Jesus freak whose sentiments about ridding the world of its exponential sin [as opposed to linear sin, I suppose – Ed.] are rivaled only by her infatuation with her dreamy pastor. [THR]

No word yet on whether she’ll be utilizing the “I’m so excited” style of acting as seen above, or the “flailing retard orgasm” style of acting as seen in this NWS clip (google image search also highly recommended). If you’ve never had a flailing retard orgasm, you’ve pretty much never had sex.
